My P55A-UD4 Rev 1.0 does the exact same thing (Win 7 x64) completely at random.

I've just disabled "C3/C6 State Support" (since I couldn't find anything labelled "C3C6C7") and so far it hasn't chirped again ("Chirp" was the word that came to my mind initially too rather than just "beep"!)

I'd like to know what the beep actually means though rather than just a workaround to shut it up.
